The room was clean and the staff were so helpful! It was a short distance to the tram line and there was a convenience store around the corner (alway it was very expensive). The only downside was that our room looked into a mirrored building so everything we did was reflected. It would have been nice to have some plants to block the reflection and break up the dreary concrete.

Stayed with Quest in Auckland New Zealand before, hence we are quite confident with the quality of the hotel as well as the service. The room is well equipped with all we need for a short stay, room is clean, bed is comfy. The hotel is very thoughtfully prepared panel heater for those, including us, found the inverter aircon too dry. Staff are friendly and proactive. The only set back is the glass shield on the bathtub. Size of the shield covers only 1/3 of the bathtub, doesn’t prevent water spilling on the floor after the shower.
